Guest Uk_Hunter Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 if anyone said to the lads round here they were selling ferrets £20 they would get laughed at Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 if anyone said to the lads round here they were selling ferrets £20 they would get laughed at There worth 10x more in reality for the sport they provide us...many people disregard ferrets as just ferrets but they are awesome little creatures... badly undervalued by most hunters... Don't breed them unless you want some yourself or you can 100% get rid of them to good homes. Quote Link to post

Guest Uk_Hunter Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 i only breed them when i am after atleast 2 out of the litter and most ferrets i breed go to good homes and are kept as pets,most people want them to go to working homes but i aint bothered i have turned people down [bANNED TEXT] when they ask because i know they wont get looked after properly Quote Link to post

mick the fish 9 Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 had 14 kits last year most silvers kept 2 back and gave the rest away and it was still hard to get rid off them . i would never pay more that a fiver unless it retrieves to hand and mark well Quote Link to post
collie/grey 238 Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 If you can't get any money for ferrets, then you shouldn't breed them. What's the point in spending money on rearing the kits for weeks and then giving them away? I got mine from a country fair last year for £7. Quote Link to post

mick the fish 9 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 it cost nothing if u have good ferrets. minced rabbit is fine for the kits . i had my 2 jills given to me. i wasnt out to make money. Quote Link to post
